A pilot validation of multi-echo based echo-planar correlated spectroscopic imaging in human calf muscles.

abstract：:Patients with different types of mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) lack specific lysosomal enzymes, which leads to tissue accumulation and urinary excretion of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Since little is known about the molecular composition of the excreted GAG fragments, we used two-dimensional [1H,13C]-correlation nuclear ...
